With this sudden change, the tables had turned.Rosie and Patrick thought they would successfully take Joanna away that day, so neither of them was expecting such a thing to happen.“Father, help me! Help me!” Jimmy cried as he clutched at Patrick’s pants.Rosie’s legs had already given way, her face drenched with her tears as she felt helpless. With all of this new information coming to light, they could now prove that Jimmy had first forced himself on Abigail before proceeding to kill her.This caused Patrick to flip and kick Jimmy in the face.“How dare you murder someone!”After Jimmy hit the floor from being kicked, he got back up and continued to cry. Next to them, Rosie tried holding Patrick back and yelled, “Pat, you have to save him. He’s your only son. You have to!”Smack!!!Instead of doing as he was told, Patrick turned around and gave Rosie a massive slap in the face. “This is happening because of how much you’ve pampered him his whole life!”Now, it was Rosie’s t

Samantha had zero energy to handle company matters due to her pregnancy so she had Joanna temporarily take care of New Paraiso on her behalf.On top of that, she had Adrian help Joanna too, who ended up being rather busy over the past few days from working together with Joanna.That night, Adrian and Samantha were planning on getting some rest when somebody knocked on their door.“Adrian, Sam…” said Adaline from the other side of the door.Adrian opened the door to let her in, while Samantha looked at her and asked, “What’s the matter, Ada? Why are you here so late at night?”Adaline sat by their bedside and replied, “It’s going to be our university’s twentieth anniversary tomorrow so there will be a lot of performances taking place. They gave us invitation letters so that we can bring our parents.“Sam, since you’ve got a lot of time on your hands, would you like to go with me?”Adaline seemed hopeful as she looked at Samantha.Swallowston University was holding an event that

Adaline woke Adrian early the next morning since he promised to attend Swallowston University’s anniversary event.Samantha took a long time to get out of bed due to her pregnancy.Adaline was getting impatient but Rue refused to let Adaline wake her. She wanted Samantha to wake up naturally.Joanna had already done her makeup a long time ago and was ready to head out. Yet, it was not until nine in the morning that Samantha woke up and walked out of her room while rubbing her sleepy eyes.Adaline, who was getting rather anxious, said, “Sam, you’re finally up. You need to hurry or we’re going to be late!”At that moment, Samantha recalled what she had promised Adaline and said, “Sorry, Ada. I genuinely have no idea why I’ve been sleeping in so much recently. I’ll get ready right away!”Samantha rushed off to the bathroom to freshen herself up while Rue brought out a hearty breakfast she had prepared. She insisted that Samantha finished it all before leaving, which took another twe

Adrian said, “Let’s head inside.”He then walked toward the entrance while Joanna and Samantha tried to find out more about the situation. Yet, the moment they got there, a few youngsters stopped Adrian in his tracks. The leader of the crew furiously said, “Hey idiot, didn’t you see the signboard? No phones allowed.”The youngster pointed toward the signboard by the side.“Why should I hand over my phone?” Adrian curiously yet calmly looked the youngster in the face.Hearing this, the leader became even more furious and said, “Because I said so, you *sshole! No phones allowed. Anyone who refuses can f*ck right off!”The leading youngster seemed really enraged and ready to get into a fight. Yet, his angry remark only piqued Adrian’s interest in him.Just as Adrian was about to question the man, Joanna walked over and pulled Adrian to the side, whispering, “I just found out that the young man you’re going up against is Harvey Decker. His father’s the main person in charge of Swallo

Harvey was slightly taken aback when he heard this.Meanwhile, the crowd stopped protesting and were now watching the scene before their eyes.In the next moment, Harvey became enraged and fiercely said, “Who the hell do you think you are?! How dare you speak to me that way! Don’t you know that nobody here is able to go against my will?!”It was not surprising for Harvey to behave as such since his father had gotten him to his current position through some underhanded tactics.However, Adrian merely smiled at Harvey’s remark and said, “Honestly, I had no idea.”“What?!” Harvey’s expression changed. “You don’t know, you say?”Adrian shook his head. “I don’t.”“You f*cking piece of sh*t!”Harvey cursed and angrily yelled, “In that case, do you know I’m going to break your legs today? I’ve decided to put you on my blacklist, and I’m going to inform my father once I leave this place to end your life!”Adrian smiled once more. “Has it ever crossed your mind that your father won’t b

“You’re a dead man!” Harvey yelled at Adrian.Smack!!!Immediately after he said this, Adrian gave Harvey another slap, causing the latter to be dumbfounded. A huge bruise appeared on Harvey’s face.Even the crowd was dumbfounded as they witnessed this.Harvey covered his face, unable to react to the situation for a moment. He had not expected Adrian to hit him for real. Despite how many people he had with him, none of them dared to step forward and assist him. In fact, they were only taking Harvey’s side out of fear of being bullied.“Arghhh!” Harvey shouted, “You’ve made me really mad now! I’m going to kill you!”Despite his fury, Harvey got slapped a third time, causing one of his teeth and some blood to fly out from his mouth. Harvey’s left face was now severely bruised and swollen.At that moment, he was completely dumbfounded!“Wh-What…” Harvey covered his face.Smack!Adrian put in a lot more energy into his fourth slap, causing Harvey to fall to the floor, the bruise

“What?”Harvey was slightly startled and did not understand what Adrian meant.Immediately after that, Adrian kneed Harvey in the face, causing the latter’s nose to break. Harvey started yelling in immense pain.Adrian took out his phone and made a call. “Contact the person in charge of Swallowston University’s internal affairs. I want him here before me within the next five minutes or his son’s a dead man.”Adrian was speaking to Mya.In less than five minutes after Adrian made the call, more than a dozen cars could be heard speeding toward Swallowston University and stopped in front of its gates. Everyone watched as the door opened and a middle-aged man in a suit rushed out and ran over.This was Collin Decker, Harvey’s father and the main person in charge of the university’s internal affairs. Naturally, the parents knew who Collin was and made way for him.Collin rushed over and immediately panicked when he saw his son, whose face was soaked in blood.“Father! You’re here! Q

As Adrian looked at the father and son, he said, “Your son has stopped all these parents here from participating in the university’s anniversary event for selfish reasons. Even going as far as to boast about how his father is from Internal Affairs. What do you think about that?”Collin broke out in cold sweat and was too frightened to answer. Adrian merely smiled at his reaction and continued, “It’s the father’s fault if his son turns out rotten, or are you trying to say you had no clue what he has turned into?”“I-it’s all my fault,” Collin replied in a trembling voice.“No, you’re not at fault. Instead, it’s society’s fault for not teaching him a lesson.”Once again, Collin was too frightened to answer.“First off, I don’t care what you do in Internal Affairs, or what kind of person you are. So, based solely on your son’s actions today, I’m going to have both his legs broken. Do you have a problem with that?”Collin took a deep breath. ‘Both his legs? He’s my only son1 What am

The trio entered Swallowston University, with the other participating parents following behind them.When they passed by the lecture halls, Adrian saw a large group of students surrounding a particular area. It seemed as though they were excited to see someone. Joanna and Samantha looked over as well.Joanna piped up, “Is that Sarah Walsh?”The large group was surrounding a gorgeous woman with a majestic temperament. She was escorted by a few bodyguards to leave the area as the students followed behind.Adrian had already heard from Adaline that the university had managed to invite Sarah Walsh, a big-time celebrity.‘Looks like she’s really popular.’Adrian continued to look at Sarah, while Joanna said, “Why don’t we follow them, Sam? She’s a celebrity, after all!”Samantha caressed her belly and replied, “You go ahead. There are too many people there.”Joanna shot a glance at the crowd and could not help but lament, “She seems really cool. I think she’s got an even greater rep

Yet, all Adrian heard when he arrived was a flurry of angry insults.“Beat them up!”“Beat them up good!”Thud! Thud! Thud!Outside William’s courtyard was a young man surrounded by more than a dozen youngsters who were punching and kicking him as he curled up into a ball.As the young man was being severely beaten, an old man in his fifties was yelling, “Stop! Stop it!”However, the old man was also kicked down onto the floor by a youngster who proceeded to say, “You’d best be on your best behavior, William. Lopo wants me to tell you this is what happens to those who disobey him.“Beat them up!” the youngster yelled.Adrian was instantly able to recognize the young man as Sandy and William’s youngest son, Reed Falkner.‘This means the old man should be William.’Adrian instantly rushed over when he saw that the young man continued to be beaten up.Pow! Pow! Pow!After a flurry of lightning-fast punches, the youngsters who were ganging up on Reed were sent flying as they sc
